Ok, ok, ok, the Umbrella Academy is one of my favourite shows, so you bet I was hyped when the season came out. I wanted the show to have good closure, and I'll say now, I am one of the few people who actually liked this season. Yes, I was disappointed with some of the execution, but it isn't as bad as everyone's saying.
THERE WILL BE SPOILERS AHEAD
Liked:
- THE ACTING WAS PHENOMENAL. LIKE, IT WAS ON A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL
- Jean and Gene were phenomenal and so fun to watch. Megan Mullaly and Nick Offerman were amazing, and it's the first time since the Handler I've been engaged with the villains (Sparrows weren't it)
- THE JENNIFER INCIDENT. This was absolutely the best way to explain it and it really shows how much of an asshole original (and this timeline) Reggie really was
- I don't care what people say this season's soundtrack slapped. The Bad Touch? Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves? Map of the Problematique? All bangers!!!
- their new powers were so cool. Like Viktor, Allison, and Ben's powers were all so cool
- ok, this might make me sound insane, but I liked how it stepped up how mature it was, like it was so GRAPHIC (but that's probably because we got to see Ben tearing people in half and it was hOt)
- Viktor and Reggie relationship of the kill or diplomacy. ALSO THE ACTING WHEN VIKTOR WAS SCREAMING AT HIM AHAHHAJHDHSH
- Luther as a stripper, that was pure gold
- "We'll let you decide which is the dominant gene and which is recessive"
- Diego naming his daughter after Grace, awwwwwww
- THE FIRST FOUR EPISODES WERE FUCKING INCREDIBLE, I HONESTLY LOVED THE SQUID AND THE GIRL AND THE CLEANSE THE MOST
- "legs and eggs"
- the Jean and Gene dance scene was perfect
- Allison got her REDEMPTION after the shit she pulled in season 3
- Klaus calling everyone out on their shit like a king
^ me on my way to marry Klaus ^
- I actually loved Abigail, I thought she was really cool
